Why this happens

The production domain has not been added correctly in Clerk, or the app is still using development keys or development-only URLs after deployment.

Fix

1

Add the live domain in Clerk

Open your Clerk dashboard and add the exact production hostname, including www if you use it.

2

Switch the deployed app to the correct Clerk keys

Confirm the production environment uses the production Clerk publishable and secret keys, not development ones.

3

Regenerate the environment setup in Lovable

Use this prompt if the app still points to the wrong Clerk instance or URLs.

Copy this prompt

Clerk auth is failing on the production domain.
Please audit the environment setup and auth config so the deployed app uses the correct production Clerk keys and authorized production domain.

Prevent this next time

Do the Clerk domain setup before launch day. Authentication domains should be part of your deployment checklist, not an afterthought.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Development and production Clerk environments are separate, and using the wrong keys creates unreliable auth behavior.

Yes, if users can reach both. Add every production hostname the app may use.
